The Middlesex district attorney's office said Tuesday that 22-year-old Ikponmwosa Ogiugo has been charged with multiple counts of identify fraud and forgery. He is alleged to have stolen more than $200,000.

Investigators said Ogiugo often received tips from his customers in the form of checks. He'd then make new computer-generated blank checks using customers' personal banking information.

The counterfeit checks were allegedly sent across the nation and deposited into strangers' bank accounts where investigators say the unsuspecting victims were persuaded by Ogiugo to forward the money to a bank in India.

Ogiugo has been released on $5,000 bail. It was not clear if he had a lawyer.
